Welcome

Thank you for purchasing your Blackmagic Camera!

We have worked hard to produce three cameras that have

been designed from the ground up to fit any kind of workflow.

Our new Pocket Cinema Camera is a Super 16 digital film

camera with 13 stops of dynamic range that is small enough

to take anywhere. The Cinema Camera records uncompressed

CinemaDNG RAW files for pristine images and our new

Production Camera 4K is a Super 35 Ultra HD 4K camera

with a global shutter and 6G-SDI output.

Our cameras are designed to produce files that are "flat",

which means they preserve the wide dynamic range from the

sensor, as well as standard file formats that work with all video

software. This allows you to make creative decisions by using

the included DaVinci color correction software!

We think this means you get a cinema style shooting

experience where you capture and preserve more of the

image so you have as many creative options as possible.

We have also included large screens on our cameras for

easy focus and metadata entry. We hope you connect to our

cameras in creative ways and produce some amazing looking

images! We are extremely excited to see what creative work

you produce!

Getting Started

Attaching a Lens

Getting started with your Blackmagic Camera is as simple as attaching a lens and turning the camera on.

To remove the protective dust cap from the EF lens mount, hold down the locking button and rotate the

cap counterclockwise until it is released. For the PL mount, rotate the PL locking ring counterclockwise.

We recommend always turning off your Blackmagic camera prior to attaching or removing a lens.

To attach an EF mount lens:

Step 1. Align the dot on your lens with the dot on the camera mount. Many lenses have a visual

indicator, for example a blue, red or white dot.

Step 2. Twist the lens clockwise until it locks into place.

Step 3. To remove the lens, hold down the locking button, rotate the lens counterclockwise until its

dot or indicator reaches the 12 o’clock position, and gently remove.

To attach a PL mount lens:

Step 1. Open your camera's PL locking ring by rotating it counterclockwise until it stops.

Step 2. Align one of the lens' four flange notches with the locating pin on the camera mount. Be sure

to align the lens for easy viewing of the lens marks.

Step 3. Tighten the camera's PL locking ring by rotating it clockwise.

Step 4. To remove the lens, rotate the locking ring counterclockwise until it stops, then gently remove

the lens.

When no lens is attached to the camera, the sensor is exposed to dust and other debris so you'll want

to keep the dust cap on whenever possible.

Recording

Press the REC button on your camera to begin recording immediately. Press REC again to stop recording.

Choosing the Recording Format

Blackmagic cameras record to several different formats, depending on which model you are using.

You may decide to experiment to see which format best suits your workflow.

You can choose from 4 different Apple ProRes formats. This lets you fit more video on your SSD or SD

card. ProRes 422 (HQ) provides the highest quality video with the lowest compression. Alternatively,

ProRes 422 Proxy gives you far more recording time with greater compression.

To select your desired video format:

Step 1. Press the MENU button. On Production Camera 4K, select Settings from the dashboard.

Step 2. Select the RECORDING menu and use the selection arrows to set the desired recording format.

Step 3. Press the MENU button to exit.

Your camera is now ready to record in the video format you have selected. The current recording format

is shown on the LCD status strip.

Playing Back Clips

Once you have recorded your video, you can use the transport control buttons to play back your video

connected to the HDMI or SDI output. Hold down the forward or reverse buttons to fast forward or

reverse through the clip. Playback will finish when the end of the current clip is reached.

start of the next clip. Press the reverse button once to go to the start of the current clip or press twice

to skip back to the start of the previous clip.
